Jonathan Anstey created AMQ-4414:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Combine windows and unix distros
                 Key: AMQ-4414
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-4414
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jonathan Anstey
            Assignee: Jonathan Anstey
             Fix For: 5.9.0


Right now, the zip and tar.gz distros contain different scripts and libs depending on the platform:

[janstey@bender tmp]$ diff -w -r apache-activemq-5.8.0_zip apache-activemq-5.8.0_tar
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_zip/bin: activemq-admin.bat
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_zip/bin: activemq.bat
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_tar/bin: diag
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_tar/bin: linux-x86-32
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_tar/bin: linux-x86-64
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_tar/bin: macosx
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_zip/bin: win32
Only in apache-activemq-5.8.0_zip/bin: win64

I'm proposing having a single ActiveMQ packaging script that produces a zip and tar.gz with the same contents. Other Apache projects do this already: CXF, Maven, ... So, we'd essentially be testing the same kit on all platforms, which makes things simpler I think.

I'll attach a patch shortly to demonstrate.
